maybe you just need glasses

28 March 2017

Saurus drew a lovely family portrait of us all as caterpillars:Me: That’s great, dude. But why did you draw it in yellow?Saurus: Because I like lellowMe: But it’s kind of hard to see on the white paper. Maybe you should have used a color with more contrast. Like blue or green.Saurus: Or maybe your just need glasses, Mom.

Either way, it was a happy picture. Which immediately made me think of more happy things. Like tacos. I love tacos. I’ve never met a taco I didn’t love. Just like I’ve never met a boy child of mine that I didn’t love. Even when they’re just-turned-four and wittier than I.

Making tacos for a crowd isn’t as fun as it sounds though, so I came up with these years and years ago and they’ve been a HUGE hit at every party. And now I see them all over Pinterest so they’re no longer unique but I’m claiming I did them first. So there.
